社会记忆与农村集中居住社区整合——以江苏省Y市B社区为例

Rural Residential Concentration and Integration from the Perspective of Social Memory: A Case Study of B Community, Y City in Jiangsu Province

农村集中居住是推动农民居住现代化的一种安置政策,这一政策实行城市管理模式,对农村城镇化发展具有推动作用。本研究通过深度访谈及参与观察的方法对Y市B社区进行了田野调查,探讨社会记忆在农村集中居住社区中的整合作用。研究发现:集中居住社区实现了制度性整合,看似秩序井然,但整体上缺乏认同性整合,而社会记忆作为一种精神力量或许能够成为重新建立社区认同的一种方式;日常交往与人情往来促进社区居民形成认同资本,从而使社会记忆得到重构;重构的社会记忆在互动和变迁中使集中居住社区形成新的秩序,同时通过社区中介营造社区氛围,最终促进社区认同性整合。

Rural residential concentration is a resettlement policy to promote the modernization of rural housing. This policy follows the mode of urban management, which plays an important role in the development of urbanization in rural areas. This study conducts a field investigation in B community, Y city, employing in-depth interviews and participant observation, and discusses the role that social memory plays in the integration and concentration of rural residential communities. The study finds that, although the commtmity with a high level of residential concentration has achieved institutional integration, there is a lack of integration from the identity dimension. As a kind of spiritual force, social memory may become an instrumaent to re-establish the community identity. The daily communication and contacts can promote the formation of villagers＇ identity capital, which helps to reconstruct their social memory. In the process of interaction and exchanges, the reconstructed social memory may form a new order in the community. In the meanwhile, social memory can also create a community atmosphere through community intermediaries, which further promotes community integration from the identity dimension.
